NEW HOT
This is not a complaint. Today is the first day that we didn't open the house first thing in the morning. This year. Well, not counting the 35-40 degree days in the winter.
Let me say this another way. It didn't cool off as much last night and it was too hot to open the house.
It was in the high 80's outside and just a bit humid.
It is July. In the desert.
On the positive side, we have yet to get any real humidity. No monsoonal effects. No monsoons.
This, in spite of the fact that there has been one Mexican hurricane and a swirl of "imbedded moisture" the last five days. Most of the moisture is in the sky not on the ground.
And the cloudy sky is the reason that we don't have as much night time cooling as normal. Lower radiation cooling.
This will change and the nights will go back to the high 70s tomorrow. Tonight? Soon.
